Re: Re: perl 5.6.0-5.6.1 upgrade problem

Hi,
I'm pretty sure the scripts are pointing to the right perl binaries:

# head -n 8 /usr/apache/htdocs/mrbs/badpw.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

# $Id: badpw.pl,v 1.3 2001/02/25 01:34:20 lbayuk Exp $

# Read AUTHENTICATION for more information
# about this script

use strict;

and:


# ls -asl /usr/bin/perl
1840 -rwxr-xr-x   3 root     other     927784 Aug  6 16:53 /usr/bin/perl
# /usr/bin/perl -v

This is perl, v5.6.1 built for sun4-solaris

Funny, above you wrote your INC contains `/usr/local/lib ...` are you sure you have to use /usr/bin/perl and not /usr/local/bin/perl ? `----------------------------------- --the good, the bad and the physi-- -----------------------------------` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I already checked everywhere I know the perl binaries to be after the update. It was clear when I upgraded perl would be placed in /usr/local/bin/perl and /usr/bin/perl. Changing the call to the binary in the script does not fix the error I'm afraid, only commenting out 'use strict' does. And being a good boy I always use strict! Damn. Thanks for the suggestion though! dan	[reply]
